youtube.com — July 14, 2008: I think this is a case where Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are fundamentally sound. They're not in danger of going under. They're not the best investment these days from a long term standpoint going back. I think they are in good shape going forward. They're in the housing market. I do think their prospects going forward are very solid.

Frank needs to spend less time in assless chaps and more time in reality.

What is not part of the video is the role Barney Frank played in rewriting the CRA [Community Reinvestment Act] rules during the Clinton Administration. That's when the Democrats put pressure on the banks to increase minority lending in order to get their requests for new bank branches and bank mergers approved. Barney Frank and Chris Dodd [on the Senate side] were front and center responsible for that legislation.

He is up for re-election now, but unfortunately, the GOP party does not appear to be fielding a candidate.

I have one last question and reply; who came up with the figure of 700 billion dollars ?Nice big fat figure ! I can assure you, this money will be like a hugh slop bucket to amass amount of hogs to gather for a feast of partaking of the same old crowd that caused it to happen, already, Acorn has had a large contribution, California is coming around to get their portion for more excessive spending, AIG has thrown a big partyto celebrate the bailout, spending some of the proceeds, nothing was said about JohnMcCain going back to washington, but to only add to the bailout, a 300 billion more dollars worth of mortgage aid, they had to make it an even trillion dollars, our govt. does things in a big way when they do them, no fear, our enemies have plenty of cash to lend to us, if they buy America, they won't have to bomb us into submission, we go by the golden rule, you know, they that have the gold rules. A short prayer for our nation; God, please send us men of good report, who loves America and cares abouther and her people, your word says: my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledgeand professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. Amen
